Hi Don, the email for Michael is hotrods@rodderslife.com.au

OR phone (03) 9752 5155

Some good footage and interviews on Rodders Life tonight from Lake Gairdner, with all the footage Michael had it's a shame he didn't do an hour special tho. I do hope he shows more in another episode, it was good viewing all the same.
